Expected behavior

DEB package corretly builds

Actual behavior

❯ Making distributables
  ✖ Making a deb distributable for linux/x64
    › Command failed with a non-zero return code (2):
      fakeroot dpkg-deb --build /tmp/electron-installer--51997-DZStMEFPGauK/youtube-desktop_1.0.5_amd64
      dpkg-deb: error: control directory has bad permissions 750 (must be >=0755 and <=0775)

Steps to reproduce

I want to build https://github.com/mikepruett3/youtube-desktop on my machine based on the documentation of the project.

As far as I see, the project itself does not configure anything for electron-forge/maker-deb other than the icon file. Therefore I don!t think it is the project's fault, I assume Ubuntu changed some expectations in dpkg-deb according to the control directory and electron-forge setups the folder incorrectly.
